Abstract

Questionnaire scores were compared across three outcome groups in a follow-up of eating-disordered patients with onset of the disease during adolescence. Among a total of 40 patients, 7 continued to suffer from either anorexia or bulimia nervosa. Seven additional patients displayed partial syndromes and 26 had recovered. Both a semantic differential measuring body image and the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT) demonstrated limited evidence of clinical sensitivity by differentiating the three outcome groups. The Eating Disorders Inventory (EDI) did not discriminate the three outcome groups. Obviously, clinical interviews and self-report questionnaires tackle different facets of the eating disorders and, therefore, both should be used in outcome studies.
